General Information
Term neuron apoptotic process ID (Ontology) GO:0051402 (Gene Ontology)
Definition Any apoptotic process in a neuron, the basic cellular unit of nervous tissue. Each neuron consists of a body, an axon, and dendrites. Their purpose is to receive, conduct, and transmit impulses in the nervous system.
Also Known As "apoptosis of neuronal cells" ; "apoptosis of neurons" ; "neuron programmed cell death by apoptosis" (for all, see Synonyms field below)
